The Knoll 1967

L

PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE

During its first half century Lowell
State turned inward to nourish the kernel
of its academic grain. With ripeness has
come fruition; the spread into multi-
purpose programs; the first tentative glo-
bal contacts. We are reaching outward
“to the strand of the Daughters of the
Sunset, the Apple-tree, the singing and
the gold.” while inquiring with Euripides:

“What else is Wisdom? What of Man’s endeavor
Or God’s high grace, so lovely and so great?

To stand from fear set free, to breathe and wait;

To hold a hand uplifted over Hate;

And shall not Loveliness be loved for ever?”

Daniel H. O’Leary

responsibilities, Dr. Joseph Williams, As-
sociate Professor English, has been a stal-
wart advisor to both the Senior Class and
to the Knoll 1967. With unceasing energy
and unwavering thought Dr. Williams has
proven to be helpful in all times of need.
It is with great pleasure and pride that

S.G.A.

Under the able leadership of Roger Landry the Student Government Association
has made giant strides in increasing communication between the student body and
the college. The S.G.A. has equipped the lower level of the Humanities Building
with a broadcasting system for announcements designed to keep the students
abreast of collegiate activities. In conjunction with the History Department the
S.G.A. has sponsored speeches by the candidates running for state offices in 1966.

The S.G.A. officers include Roger Landry, Diana Shadan Archambeault, John
Golic, Jeanne Corcoran, Dennis Canney, Ellen Brady, Bernard Battles, Robert
Mullen, and Karen Roper.

JAZZ SOCIETY

The Jazz Society is dedicated to promoting all
kinds of music with an emphasis on jazz. The
Society fills a void in the present curriculm by
familiarizing the students with an important me-
dium of the musical world. Presenting three con-
certs a year, the Society alternates between the
seventeen member traditional band, simulating
the Basie sound and individual presentations by
smaller groups.

This year the Society received official recogni-
tion from the College by performing at Parent’s
Day and by giving an impromptu program at the
Vermont Band Clinic.

ATHENAEUM

SOCIETY

Although the activities of the
Athenaeum Society have been limited by
the full schedules of its members, they
have found the time to enjoy collection
trips to beaches, several movies, and a
lecture, “Radiational Effects/’ In addi-
tion they have assisted the instructors
with the Science Faculty Convention
which was held at L.S.C.

For future use, the Society purchased
an aquarium before completing the year
with a banquet and a field trip to Stage
Fort Park.

Standing: Richard Marchand, Nancy Upton.

MISS KNOLL

Breaking the Miss Knoll tradi-
tion, Rita McConaghy (IF) is a
Freshmen elementary major.
Rita resides with her mother at
169 Oak St., Lawrence, Mass,
and between her classes at
Lowell State and her part-time
job as a receptionist leads a very
busy life. Coming to us from St.
Mary’s High School in Law-
rence, Rita is a charming asset to
our college. She can be seen any-
time playing whist, dancing,
knitting, and says her main in-
terests are driving her Mustang,
Mr. Olday, and Jimmy Dziadosz.
Let’s hope her lively personality
perks up Lowell State for a long
time to come.

OUTDOOR

EDUCATION

A good example of education outside the class-
room was demonstrated by Dr. H. Marie Gar-
rity’s Outdoor Education elective. Besides the or-
dinary format of lectures Dr. Garrity introduced
guest speakers, but the most interesting phase of
the course was the visits to Sargent Camp,
Peterborough, New Hampshire. The camp,
owned by Boston University, works with lower
and middle class children. There is a permanent
staff as well as part time instructors from various
colleges.

Four different students attended each week.
They spent the first few days learning and observ-
ing. By the end of the week they taught two
classes. An experience in teaching and human
relations is unusual to find in an elective.

October 30, 1 966

At the Little Theater the Lowell State Seniors
were officially invested into the academic life of
the college. Music was provided by the Brass
Choir and the Concert Choir under the direction
of Mr. Gay and Dr. Gilday. John Moore, the
president of the Senior class, and Dr. Williams,
the class advisor, presented the Senior class to
Dr. O’Leary to be invested. Dr. O’Leary gave an
impressive speech on the growth of the college in
the past ten years. The Seniors and their parents
were served coffee and cakes in the cafeteria
where the parents had the opportunity of meeting
the faculty.

MARY STUART

The year’s first major production of the 1966-1967
season, Mary Stuart , was a modern adaptation of
Heinrich Schiller’s Maria Stuart. The play, under the
direction of Mrs. Nancy Williams contrasted Queen
Elizabeth, a monarch, with Queen Mary, a woman.
The difficult dual leads were played by Sally Still as
Elizabeth and Linda Vierra as Mary. Other members of
the cast included Edward Cornell, Peter Hildebrand,
Russell Carey, James Justice, Eleanor Sheehan, Frank
M. Baglione, Ray Brosarde, Keven Shannahan, and
Charles Peverell.
